We would like to take this opportunity to say a big THANK YOU to all of the companies that have supplied funding, products or services that will help us to achieve our targets - your generosity is truly appreciated.
We ask you, our site visitors, to please help us repay this kind generosity by visiting our sponsors websites. Clicking any logo shown below will take you to their home pages.
OUR MAJOR SPONSOR
GMB, Britain's General Union, has agreed to become our major sponsor. In doing so, they will raise money for our cause across their UK-wide network of branches and we also hope to become one of the GMB's designated charities later this year.
We will now feature the GMB logo in all of our literature, clothing and support vehicles.
The GMB Union has 600,000 members spanning industries from every part of the economy. In fact, they represent one in every 32 of the UK workforce.
GMB is a campaigning union, focussed on protecting their members in the workplace. Whether you're looking for better pay, improved childcare, realistic work-life balance, a change to long working hours, the elimination of poor health and safety or simply a desire for respect from your employer; together our voices are much more powerful than one voice alone.
Through peace and war, with and without help from Government, GMB has been winning for their members and protecting people at work. GMB is here for you - to protect you, to represent you and to make a better life for you.
Anyone can join, so if you would like the backing of the GMB, please visit here or contact your local branch.
If you have any enquiries please email info@gmb.org.uk or telephone GMB on 020 8947 3131

Can you beat that?
Based in Hertford, Sawbridgeworth BMW offer the complete package for bikers - from the sale of new and used motorbikes, servicing, clothing, accessories and bike hire right through to training. All this with a warm welcome!
SBW Motorrad has very generously donated the use of two R1200GS Adventure motorbikes for use by riders on our trip - these will be auctioned to the highest bidders which will raise several hundred pounds - possibly even 4 figures!
Do you own a dealership? Talk to us about similar sponsorship opportunities.
Home of the world's best Motorcycle Communication and Entertainment Systems, this Warwick based manufacturer is well known to motorcyclists throughout the country, and far beyond.
Autocom will be supplying our team with their latest Bluetooth communication systems that will enable our main riders to stay in touch, not only with each other, but with the support vehicles too!
Following the ride, Autocom have also generously donated 2 new systems which will be auctioned to raise further funds.
Founded by Fred DeLuca in 1965, the SUBWAY chain fills a gap in the market for great tasting food made the way you want it. Specialists in SUB sandwiches and salads, the SUBWAY chain has experienced significant growth in recent years as a "popular alternative" to other food options by consistently offering value to consumers through great tasting fresh food.
Subway franchisee Ecko Ltd has provided the facility to collect in store at all their locations. At the time of writing, this was 15 outlets, but this figure is due to increase rapidly to 25 with a major expansion program.
Not only that, but they have also generously donated refreshments for our team on the day of the journey. We're rather looking forward to that!
Robin Hood Harley-Davidson in Beeston, Nottingham, has offered to support our event by supplying a bike for the ride and also with some goodies to be included in our auction.
We are very pleased to be able to be able to work with this well established and respected dealership.
With a second branch in Chesterfield – HarleyWorld – they offer new and used bikes, workshop facilities, clothing, advice and ongoing support – including regular ride-outs.
More details will follow soon and, fingers crossed, we can put a little pressure on Harley's marketing department to match the offer. Come on guys, you know you want to..!
